Chapter 590 Olivia frowned. It seemed Dorothy had something to do with this.
âWhy didnât she refuse?â
âI donât know. The media said so. I donât know about the details. Zac never told me either.â
Olivia did not know what Dorothy was up to, but she was sure Zac would never agree to a marriage.
It seemed that they should test Dorothy.
âKen, help me get a ticket to Dorothyâs party on Sunday.â
âAre you going?â
âYeah, Iâm back. I should meet my old friend, of course.â
Ken was worried. âDidnât you say discreetly? Youâre so prominent. If Dorothy targets you...
âDo you think sheâd target a dead person?â
Olivia smiled mysteriously. There was no way she would be stupid enough to confront Dorothy face to face.
âI see. Iâll arrange it for you.â
âOkay, thank you then. Iâve already had someone look into where Zac went missing.â
Olivia then repeated what Fred had said the night before, finally expressing that there was also a locator bracelet to see if it could be backtracked.
Ken frowned. âYouâre right. It must be an acquaintance. Do you have any guesses?â
âYeah. It has to do with the Jameson family or Jimmy if it has to do with marriage.â
Even though Jimmy was Zacâs dad, she knew from meeting him once that they did not get along.
Besides that, Jimmy had wanted Zac to marry Rainie four years earlier. He could force him to marry Dorothy.
âIâll check with the people at his law firm and see if there are any other clues.â
âOkay, we need to find Zac as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the more dangerous it gets.â
âYeah.â
They chatted some more. Ken ate a meal with her and left before dark.
After going out for some groceries, Olivia stayed home for the next two days, waiting for news and preparing the birthday present for Sunday.
At 7 PM on Sunday, Olivia took a shower, changed into a white gown, applied a fairer foundation on her face, and drew a moie near her right eye. Finally, she put down her long hair and curled it into large curls before twirling it in front of the mirror to ensure there was no problem before going out with her bag.
She was so nervous on her way there that her palms broke out in a cold sweat. She also kept wiping them all the way.
Four years. Four whole years.
She hated Dorothy but was also afraid.
She was afraid she would lose again four years later after losing four years ago.
After all, she and Dorothyâs identity had been turned around. She was no longer the heiress of the Larson family, but Dorothy was the heiress of the Jameson family.
When she reached Waterfront International Hotel, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down before making her way to the entrance, showing her ticket, and walking in.
The Jameson family had spent a fortune on this party.
Not only were there many wealthy people, but it was also fancy and impressive.
However, she could not accept Dorothyâs taste.
Everywhere was glittering gold. People would think a nouveau riche was hosting the party.
Olivia looked for Dorothy in the crowd. However, she saw the woman she had met at the cemetery instead of seeing Dorothy.
She was still in a red dress and stood out in the crowd.
Then she saw Dorothy in a diamond-encrusted evening dress coming down the stairs. She hugged the woman in red. They seemed to say something to each other and laughed as they pressed together.
âDo they know each other? Are they familiar with each other?
Could the woman have nothing to do with Ken, and this was all Dorothyâs plan?
But why?
Does Dorothy know of my existence and that I have returned to Ocean City?â
